3. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING PERSONAL INFORMATION
The legal basis for collecting and using personal information depends on the specific personal information and context in which it was collected.
We will only collect personal information from you if we need it to fulfill a contract with you, if processing is in our legitimate interests and does not override your rights, or if we have your consent to do so. We have a legitimate interest in operating our Services and communicating with you as necessary for the provision of these Services, such as responding to your queries, improving our platform, conducting marketing, or detecting and preventing illegal activities.
If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the time of collection. If we collect and use your personal information based on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will clearly explain to you what those interests are.

If we have collected and processed your personal information with your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
6. DATA RETENTION AND SECURITY
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to provide you with our Services, or for other essential purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements.
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
